Fantasy Metal from Finland,
By Ari "Ari" (ny, usa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Third Age of the Sun (Dig) (Audio CD)
After checking out the videos and music clips on the band's website, www.battlelore.net , I ended up purchasing all of their albums and even bought the pal video from the end records. They've changed a few members but the music is a combination of growling and clean male vocals accented by a sweet sirens song. This stuff is just good fun from a bunch of tolkien nerds who engage in larps and read lots of fantasy novels. They even play their concerts in full costume. Recommended for anyone who likes fantasy metal.

This review is from: Third Age of the Sun (Dig) (Audio CD)
Battlelore is a great metal band with excellent musicianship and terrific female vocals, and the album is a compelling metal-operatic fantasy based on Tolkein; unfortunately on all but one track the songs are ruined for me by (sorry, fans) the prominence of death metal styled grunted vocals, something I fail to see any attraction in. If you enjoy that sort of thing that you are sure to really enjoy this album; but if you find no pleasure in grunted, growling, roaring vocals, then steer clear. 2003's Sword's Song and 2006's Where The Shadows Lie seem to be less growlingly intrusive in the vocal department.
